The Quest for Orichalcum, in fact. I haven’t been able to stop tinkering with it now it’s more or less finished.
I need to do a blurb… something along the lines of:
How did Big Pete and the Swede meet? How did they get to be so rich? And were they always successful with women? What adventures did they have before they reached the Viridium System?
draft blurb, The Quest for Orichalcum by Jemima Pett © 2025
All these questions are addressed in the Quest for Orichalcum, a biography, or memoir, of your favourite asteroid miners, from before the days when instacomms enabled real connectivity through the galaxy. Before anyone knew what orichalcum was, or could do for civilisations throughout the universe.
A gathering of tales of the men, their women, their extracurricular activities, disasters, deaths, murders, and surfing. And all before anyone but the people of Corsair had ever heard of the Perihelix.
Yes, I think that might be okay, as a blurb. I also developed a draft cover, but now I’ve finished tweaking it, so here’s the final version!
ARCs are now available, if you’d like to review it.
